About the Project Lifecycle

The idea can go through an approval process or can be fast tracked to project creation. When the idea is ready to be converted, the Idea Review process starts a project creation process. The process is based on the following idea type and idea category combinations. The project creation process converts the idea to a project using the applicable project template. Also copies the field values from the idea to the project.
